Jurassic World Event Brings Dinosaurs and NFT Rewards

Dinosaurs, NFTs, and 50,000 SAND in rewards? That’s right—The Sandbox is bringing the prehistoric heat this July with an epic new limited-time event celebrating the release of the latest Jurassic World movie. Whether you're a long-time explorer of the metaverse or brand new to the world of blockchain games, this is your chance to earn rewards, hatch digital dinosaurs, and dive into an experience millions of years in the making.

Let’s break down everything you need to know about this dino-sized event.

Explore the Dinosaur Preserve for Limited-Time Rewards

The Jurassic World: Dinosaur Preserve is back, and it's wilder than ever. Inside this lush digital sanctuary, you can complete quests, collect NFT eggs, and rack up Ethos Points (EP) to win part of a massive 50,000 SAND prize pool—worth around $12,000!

To get started, players need to enter the Preserve and complete quests. Each quest earns you 1 EP, and collecting 20 EP qualifies you for all the big prizes. It’s simple: play, explore, help the park staff, and get rewarded.

Movie Premiere Event Details

Timed to align with the July premiere of the new Jurassic World film, The Sandbox’s Movie Premiere Event lets fans relive the thrill of the movie in interactive form. Whether you're rescuing dinosaurs, fixing habitats, or uncovering secrets, every action helps you progress.

Even if you’re new to the game or have never owned an NFT before, you can jump in and start earning EP to qualify for exciting rewards. The event runs through July 23, so there’s still time to dive in.

Win Rare NFT Dinosaur Eggs in the Raffle

After collecting 20 EP, you’ll be automatically entered into a raffle to win one of 1,151 NFT dinosaur eggs. These eggs are not just collectibles—they can be hatched into full-grown digital dinosaurs.

Here’s what’s up for grabs:

• 🟡 1 Legendary Egg

• 🔴 10 Epic Eggs

• 🔵 40 Rare Eggs

• 🟢 100 Uncommon Eggs

• ⚪ 1,000 Common Eggs

Each player can win only one egg, and you don’t need to own one beforehand. Just participate in the event, meet the EP requirement, and you’re in the running.

SAND Prize Pools for Egg Holders

Once you have your egg (or a hatched dinosaur), you’re eligible to win a share of the 50,000 SAND prize pool, distributed based on egg rarity:

• 🥚 Common Egg holders split 5,000 SAND

• 🥚 Uncommon Egg holders split 7,500 SAND

• 🥚 Rare Egg holders split 10,000 SAND

• 🥚 Epic Egg holders split 12,500 SAND

• 🥚 Legendary Egg holders split 15,000 SAND

Hold more than one egg? You’ll receive multiple shares! Even new raffle winners get included automatically, creating a fair and fun system for all.

Hatch Your Dinosaur in the Research Lab

Want to go beyond just collecting eggs? Visit the Research Lab in The Sandbox and hatch your dinosaur into a young or adult version. This adds a deeper gameplay element—feed, raise, and evolve your creature as part of your virtual adventures.

Every dinosaur hatched is unique, and with several types to unlock, you never know what prehistoric pal you’ll bring to life next.

The Jurassic World and Sandbox Partnership

The Jurassic World universe first arrived in The Sandbox in March 2025, during Alpha Season 5. This groundbreaking partnership with Universal Products & Experiences and Amblin Entertainment gave life to Jurassic World: Dinosaur Preserve—a digital game where players take on the role of the Dinosaur Protection Group inside a virtual Arizona-based sanctuary.

The game introduced two egg types:

• Herbivore eggs: Free to all players

• Carnivore eggs: Sold as NFTs on Polygon, making them tradable and collectible

This event stood alongside more than 40 brand integrations in Season 5, including titles like The Walking Dead, Attack on Titan, and The Smurfs. Altogether, players could earn up to $1 million in SAND, making it one of the most ambitious blockchain gaming seasons to date.

Dino Collectibles and Virtual Land Ownership

The Sandbox didn't stop with eggs and dinosaurs. They also released virtual land plots themed around Jurassic World. LAND buyers received exclusive Creator Asset Packs containing dinosaurs, park scenery, and movie-themed props—ideal for building your very own prehistoric playground.

This kind of user-generated content is where The Sandbox truly shines. You’re not just playing in someone else’s world—you’re building your own.
